Sensitivity studies of the impacts of climate change on white nile flows

Several exploratory studies are presented on the sensitivity of the water balance of the White Nile to climate change, using both observed and stochastic time series to drive the models. Example results are presented using various assumed climate change scenarios and results from a General Circulati...

Summary:Several exploratory studies are presented on the sensitivity of the water balance of the White Nile to climate change, using both observed and stochastic time series to drive the models. Example results are presented using various assumed climate change scenarios and results from a General Circulation Model.
